Welcome to the forum. Its great that you joined. When you order tell them your username and you should get the discount. There might be a limit to the number of post you must be active in before you are able to get the discount though. I am sure someone will be along shortly to have all that info. And again welcome to the forum and you made a great choice with BHW barrels. I have 2 and love them.

There is no such coupon in existence. Never has been. Just add your Forum name and that you are a member here in the comments box on your order. I wouldn't be waiting for January. You're gonna buy a barrel so why wait on getting BHW goodness in your hands.
Welcome to the board. Ask away if you have any questions.
Greg

I did just end up placing an order and in the comments section mentioning my username and this post. also emailed sales@blackholeweaponry.com JP courtesy of the people I called to make the payment to make sure. I was informed I would be refunded the amount to the associated card used.

Do you think I should have had it cerakoated for better longevity and quality of the barrel? How come black hole had to stop doing the fluted customs? How long do you imagine the order will take before it shipped. I got an email that showed 10-12 weeks =(

Black shot peened is a very durable metal finish and will last as long as the barrel itself. Cerakote is strong, looks nice and gives you more color options but can and does wear off or chip. I think you made a good choice, I'm about to order a 14.5" 5.56 barrel next week. It'll be my forth BHW barrel. happy shooting

BTW what gas length did you go with?

How long do you imagine the order will take before it shipped. I got an email that showed 10-12 weeks =( The blacked shot peened surface is very resilient. I'm not a real cerakote kind of guy. Black or shiny is more my style. I've not had a barrel fail me because of how the exterior looked. In fact one of my best shooting Remingtons was put up wet before I bought it and surface rust was quite prominent. It shoots as well as any factory 243 i have ever seen...LOL Like the posting stated they are holding off on fluting so they can catch up on other orders. Fluting is very machine time intensive so it was either flute one or make two or three. Once they are caught up they will start doing fluting. I talked with JB about it the other day and that will not be in the too distant future. Shipping? Probably not quite as long as the quote. I know that Black Friday brought in a lot of RTS orders plus regular build types. Greg
